Texas builder Bob Perry, who in 2004 funded the “Swift Boat Veterans for Truth” campaign targeting Democratic presidential nominee John Kerry, donated $7 million to conservative group American Crossroads between September 1 and October 13, according to the Wall Street Journal.
American Crossroads, which was founded with help from Republican strategists Karl Rove and Ed Gillespie, raised $15 million in September and early October alone, according to recently-released reports by the Federal Election Committee. According to Politico, more than two-thirds of that money came from a total of three individuals and two corporations.
